This day...I walked out with you
  Sure, secure in the knowledge
You would not let me down.
   I walked with you promising myself
To nurture you until my end.
  You have been my promise
And hope, my faith and my journey
   I have walked the path with you
A path which never forked
    Never have I stalled to doubt
The hands which had reached out
    To wipe my tears and lift my soul
This day, fifteen years hence
     The journey has reached the twilight
Of age and experience and respect
     Another has begun, into the sunset
My promise to myself stays
    We shall walk together into the sun.
